    Volcanic eruptions occur when magma rises from the earth's mantle and breaks through the surface. When the pressure becomes too great, an explosive eruption can happen, releasing dangerous and destructive flows of lava and ash. It is important to have an evacuation plan and emergency supplies ready in case of an eruption. During an eruption, people should evacuate exclusion zones or shelter inside with windows and doors covered. After the eruption, it is unsafe to return home until officials say it is safe, and ash should be removed from roofs while assessing damage. Safety precautions like masks are also needed when cleaning ash.
